Egg Bhurji Recipe / Anda Bhurji Recipe / Indian Style Spicy Scrambled Eggs Recipe

Egg Bhurji Recipe is an easy and very simple side dish for Paratha / Phulka , Chapathi and even as a Sandwich filling for Bread. Egg Bhurji is one of my most favorite side dish for rotis and this dish has some sweet childhood memories. One of my dear friend brings Egg Bhurji & Plain Paratha for lunch almost everyday. But she never ate her Paratha & Bhurji for lunch because me and my other friends will finish it off even before lunch break😂 and we gave our lunch(mostly rice dishes or Idlis) to her. My Friend's Mom' Egg Bhurji is unbeatable. I tried my best to recreate Her recipe and the bhurji turned out as good as Her's. But can't beat Mom's preparation rt?! This recipe of Egg Bhurji requires lots of onion and tomato which needs to be saute in oil nice and soft, so that the Egg gets cooked well with the masala and the bhurji will be juicy without dry scrambled eggs texture. Do checkout the video and try it this way and am sure you gonna love it.
